Evening Activities are full of fun for everyone at Montecito Summer Family Camp. Every day ends with a special program designed for all members of the family followed by a sing-a-long around a blazing campfire.

Weekly Theme Parties
Each Wednesday night features a festive theme party, complete with décor, costumes, goodies, and a family dance party with a DJ. Be sure to pack a costume for Theme Night: check the list on the right side of the page for your week’s theme. Wear your theme-night attire to dinner and enjoy a special menu, followed by a Kids’ Carnival with face painting, fishing for prizes, ball toss and other games. Then get out on the dance floor and boogie!

Casino Night
Casino Night is a great mixer, with popular casino games and fun-filled kids’ games. Get a fist full of “Montecito Money” and have a blast.

Coffee House
Staff and guests share their talents at a mellow Open Mic evening. Do you sing? Dance? Play an instrument? Spin a good yarn? Come show us what you’ve got – or join in a session of Karaoke!

International Night
Our staff members come from all around the world. After Coffee House, they’ll set up tables and display photos, maps, crafts and other items from their home countries. Kids can get a questionnaire to help them learn about the different nations represented at Montecito Sequoia Lodge.

Variety Show
This is another evening “on stage”,,” featuring age group productions, family songs, stunts, silly skits, jokes, and lots of laughter. While Coffee House is mellow, the Variety Show is hilarious. All guests are encouraged to dive right in and be entertaining.

Campfire Sing-Along
What would camp be without songs around the campfire? Every night except Thursday ends with a sing-a-long and s’mores around a blazing fire at our Pow Wow circle. The kids can wind down for the night after their exciting day at Montecito Sequoia Lodge, and everyone can relax and have fun.

Night Hikes
On Tuesday night, join us for a four-mile hike to Baldy Ridge. Enjoy the spectacular 360° views from the top, watch the sunset paint the mountains in glory, and hike back down under the stars. If you’d rather not hike, stay in camp for a “free choice” evening program that includes canoeing, campfire (with s’mores!), counselor hunt, and more.
